resample is mono of course. it sounds like crap when resampling the entire mix. It's ok to grab stuff from mono sources or resample single tracks but as soon as you start spreading things and using fx, resampling becomes of limited use.

I carry the Digitakt with me everywhere now, in my backpack, together with my favourite headphones. As long as there's a power outlet somewhere, there's potential for music making.

It hits the sweet spot in size and portability, in this regard.

I have a feeling Elektron's going for a suite of boxes this size, all of them lined up together making up for a complete, very portable studio. FX, recording, sampling and drums and synths. A very defined series of gear, with the best of all they've learned throughout the years. Sort of like a wrap-up of decades of development.

And I have a feeling that lineup will be complete in about a year or so, at which point there's time for a next gen iteration of their high end line-up, which I believe will redefine their entire paradigm - interface, workflow, architecture, the lot.

Thank you for clarifying record buffers have nothing to do with sampling. I didn't know there was another way to assign what you sampled to tracks. How do that? Thanks!

Erm, I didn't say those things Maybe easier to show than speak. Here's a quick video. Default OT settings/no template. Sampling from input C. Sampling + accessing the edit page is a one step operation (Rec C/D + Edit). Press stop to stop sampling. After that you just trim and assign to whatever slot you want. Which I could have filmed too but I guess is the same as DT?

My questions were more about me trying to understand the 'sampling is so fast on DT' comments than me wanting to defend OT/other samplers, I just wanted to know what about the DT process was making people write that so often. And my previous comment to you was just saying, 'what you've written about basic sampling on OT is innacurate'. It's not really helpful to spread that kind of info, people do this with OT quite a lot Don't want to derail the thread further but if you have any Q's hit me up with PM

Edit - the title of the vid isn't a dig, just a dumb joke paraphrasing Strawberry Fields. In case anyone never heard it

I'm finding this thing to be an amazing synthesizer. I have a project loaded with all the single cycle waveforms. Load up a bunch on tracks 1-7 so you can layer, detune, cross fade, saturate and filter. Resample and load to track 8 to see the different sounds you can build with that, and either go crazy resampling those or start over with the basic single cycle tracks. After a while you have a bunch of great synth sounds that you can start a new pattern with.

Haha any chance of a quick a/b dude? Prob going to grab a DT later this year after its ironed out (tho also quietly/foolishly hoping an OT2/DT XL or whatever they want to label it appears by then...). From vids it definitly sounds like they improved every area of the actual 'sound' since OT. Curious to hear same sample on both and chromatic with drive/filter etc...
